The Dems are going to take all the wrong messages from last night and double down and push a wet fart out in 2020 and my national nightmare is going to loving continue. I wish there was an outside chance that ol' Nancy wouldn't be the speaker but lmao

FlamingLiberal posted:After what happened here in FL last night I am extremely concerned about 2020. I don’t think my state will vote against Trump unless the economy shits itself in the next 24 months. A bunch of people got their voting rights back, if they break 60/40 in favor of the dems then it's a good thing. Like 40% of african american males couldn't vote in 2016 or last night, by statistics alone that should help out a ton. I'm upset about Florida and Ohio, but old people are going to continue dying off in Florida in the next two years so

Covok posted:We won! They lost! For gently caress sake, be happy you covoking broke brains. I'm happy that we won. We didn't win as much as I would have liked, nor did we stop as much bleeding as what happened in the senate but a lot of the state houses/senate/supreme court and governor positions were a really nice touch going into 2020 however the biggest thing that I've always hated and the biggest thing that has always bothered me is how much I hate the Democratic party, and every sign so far is that the leadership is going to continue being a wet fart. I just wish I could vote for an actual progressive party without giving Republican's a victory they don't deserve.

Katt posted:I never got the cartridge hate. I remember when the Playstation and N64 where a thing and the playstation had loading times. Unfortunately for you this isn't how the gaming industry works anymore and like nobody is crying for the cartridge to come back except for extreme weirdos who have this weird nostalgia about them. They were terrible for sound quality and didn't have enough space on them to have anything resembling actual video quality as well as being super expensive. The USB Flash Drive found in your cereal or happy meal is also going to have a drastically noticeable slowdown when it comes to read and transfer speed so you won't instantly have a level loaded there either. This is why there are still loading times on the switch even though they've moved back to an SD card, technology has changed and for the better and one of the downsizes was a loading bar (that most gaming companies have gotten to just 1 load time anyway) Like I can't stress the importance of how that space being made available has allowed companies to experiment and push the boundaries that a cartridge didn't even dream of doing in the first place but that isn't for the USPOL thread tbh.

loving lmao if you think that shaming a person gets them to do a bit of self reflection and realize that they are in the wrong instead of the reality of them playing nice until you are out of ear shot and immediately putting it on you as they play the victim card and then grow even further into their hatred as you've now given them a mean face and persona to attack their inner rage towards as they recall the story about the time they were bullied by the mean progressive

All I'm saying is you don't start with the shaming or else you've literally given them the "mean bully" out that they will milk for ages. You call them out in public and you give them credible sources and are nice to them and once that doesn't work, sure go the shame route unless what they've said is so universally sexist/racist that you shaming this is perfectly acceptable.

Jaxyon posted:For some people, and this is important, no level of discourse is gentle enough. For the majority of people. You have gamers who consistently make attack helicopter jokes and won't buy games because their beloved franchise has a woman, poc, or the double whammy woman poc as the lead and people here want to raise their noses up at Boomers and say it's the parents generation that's the issue. You've got to challenge people on a consistent basis and you've got to shun them and you've got to be the one capable of showcasing your point in a calm manner because it's never about your 1 on 1 confrontation with the person. It's always going to be about the audience and making sure that maybe one person listening will begin to think so that things can get better.

Jaxyon posted:If you're not making GBS threads on the effectiveness of shaming/yelling people then we good. I think it's not the best approach to start with it, but at the same time understand that some situations and numerous different type of contexts call for skipping right to it when appropriate. To be fair to myself, I'm about done with being nice to anybody who identifies as a Centrist and even further done to those right of that. I'm sick of all this loving information being available and being willfully ignorant isn't seen as the bad thing it should be. I'm glad that I'm independent enough and have escaped living in the South to where I've actively cut my family out of my life since the 2016 election but again not everybody can do that

Nazzadan posted:Nothing in his post was exceptionally aggro, sorry an all uppercase "lol" set off your weird concern trolling? Not really concern trolling, but I am worried about a bunch of influx of gamer gate idiots being way more prominent and like it's nice to see that the polls from a year ago show a good trend but it still doesn't seem right, but maybe I'm still worried about the upcoming dsa meeting tomorrow. Also it wasn't just the "lol" but also "aww did your feelings get hurt" which I've heard a lot in my life because a lot of "hey maybe you shouldn't be an rear end in a top hat for comedy" has been turned around as "don't be so emotional" and "what are you, on your period?" so like, guess that'll never change. I'll back out of the thread, sorry for making an appearance, continue on.

theflyingorc posted:This is a weird thing to post, and I do not wish to outrank anybody. I can understand that things get repeated a lot but this is a huge thread and I'll be honest there's sometimes where I just skip to the end because there's a couple hundred to a thousand new posts that I don't have the energy to read. It's hard to keep emotionally attached to how lovely things are right now and all I really wanted to see was that if the perception of a bunch of dumb MAGA idiots being public was a high enough % to be worried. I put it in quotes because I tried to make sure it wasn't a stance that people thought I took, with saying that it just feels like it's becoming the opposite and I understand as I'm typing that out right now that it's a feels/reals thing and I hate myself for it. It's just with a lot of celebration on Reddit, with T_D, with 4chan, with 8chan, with a bunch of lovely loving hellhole places on the internet. That it doesn't seem what the polls say. I'm glad to be corrected, I'm glad to be wrong and that the shift is real and is apparent enough to have solid data points, but even in my post education comp sci / stem field industry I'm still seeing a lot of loving CHUDS and not enough support for what I think is basic rights. HR literally had to give a lecture about trans rights last month because one of our employees said "I don't care what he calls himself, him cutting off his dick doesn't make him a woman" and even then it was all "I'm doing this because corporate wants me to" rather than an issue people wanted to stand up for. And I get it, I know that my small anecdotes don't really make up the bigger picture here. My stats professor is throwing chalk at me from states away but sometimes I need somebody to slap me with polls so that I can feel better about the world I'm leaving behind lmao I didn't mean to "pull rank" or try to do anything but I'm personally done with hurtful/mean comedy that puts people down. The world does that enough imo
